Nature

Minsk Oblast is characterised by a gently undulating plain, the gentle ridges of the Minsk Upland, and shallow river valleys.

Minsk Oblast forms a central region of Belarus around Minsk and stretches from the area of Lake Naroch to the Berezina.

Its aquatic and forested character is evident from the fact that Lake Naroch is part of its northern lake district, while the Berezina and the Neman drain the interior of the country; outside Minsk, forests cover significantly more than one-third of the area.
